Auction house Nate D. Sanders said the prop gun, made of
gray, brown and silver fiberglass, is still in its original
filming condition, retaining "its original flash suppressor and
scope, though it does not (and never did) fire".
Actor Mark Hamill, who played Skywalker, gave the prop as a gift
to a young fan in an episode of the BBC television show "Jim'll
Fix It", the auction house added.
Measuring 12 inches, it is described as being "in very good
condition" despite having some wear.
According to Nate D. Sanders' website, the minimum bid is at
$200,000 with the auction ending on Jan. 28.
